I'm in Ontario, so I have no idea how your plan works. Your doctor will know. And you can find out by going to the Pharmacare website (I just did), and searching on bupropion (the generic drug).
From what I can see, your doctor has to fill out a special authorization. From my cursory search, it appears that Pharmacare covers generic drugs only? If there's an XL version in generic, I'd say probably.
It's good for you to know how things work, so why don't you check out the website. You can download the special forms, and see for yourself.
